Description

Marilyn brings to life the real woman behind the mask of one of the best known and loved film stars of the Twentieth Century. Although her fame rests largely on her image as the "sexy, dumb blonde", in this starkly confessional one woman show, she tells of her struggle to reconcile herself, her craft and her genius to the demands made by lovers, teachers, directors and her fellow actors.

Written by award winner Gwynne Edwards, (Burton, Dylan Thomas Clown in the Moon,)
Directed by Jo Lloyd - Welcome
Performed by Nicola Burgess who has previously performed with Theatre Rue at Aberystwyth Art Centre as Doris in Same Time Next Year, Chlamydia in Very Hard Times and Miss Shepherd in Lady in the Van.
